Music students desiring to teach in the public schools must complete the Bachelor of Music degree in music education to attain provisional certification in music K–12, and then pursue permanent certification through completion of a master’s program with initial licensure or by other means provided by the school district of employment. The Master of Education program at The University of Tampa is a 13-month program designed for working teachers through which professionals may attain teacher certification (Track 1).
